Might be somewhat of a moot point if there's a change in manager but is Valencia's time in the side finally over now? Hard to see him getting back in under Mourinho and surely the next manager wouldn't revert back to him either?

He will probably get minutes here and there but hard to say if he will ever be a starter again.

Not sure on the extend of the injury last night but it looked pretty innocuous and something he would normally shake off. Looked like he wanted out as soon as it happened, like a boxer who couldn't go to the well anymore because there's no water left.

@GifLord is it possible to get a gif of at 31 minutes when Fred is looking at the ball and all you hear is Valencia screaming mine and then completely fluffs it, misses the ball and handles it at the same time. I laughed way too hard at that moment in game.

Have been a big fan but not sure his heart is in it anymore.

If the rumours about him falling out with Mourinho are true then that could be why his heart isn’t in it. Which would make him one of many players potentially revived under a new manager.

He's 33 and will be 34 before next season starts, I can't him reviving his career. He's done at the top and has been for a while. I have no problem with Mourinho dropping him, if that's down to Valencia's form or them falling out is a different matter, but it's hard to disagree with Mourinho on this.
